Description
Tokyo Riki Kocho Cobalt series cutting scissors in cobalt steel with offset handle and convex blade. Available in 6.5", 7.0", and 7.2" lengths, made in Japan.
Where this sits
In Tokyo Riki's cutting scissors lineup the Tokyo Riki Kocho Cobalt Cutting Scissors occupies the mid-range tier, priced above the Tokyo Riki Hakucho SUPER Cutting Scissors. Manufactured in Japan.
The Kocho Cobalt series covers three blade lengths — 6.5”, 7.0”, and 7.2” — giving stylists a choice of reach within a consistent cobalt steel and offset-handle build. Tokyo Riki has made scissors in Itabashi, Tokyo since 1946, and the Cobalt designation reflects the material published for this line.
Longer blades in the 7.0” and 7.2” range suit slide cutting, one-length work, and stylists who prefer to pull through a section in fewer strokes. The 6.5” offers a mid-length option with the same construction. All three variants share the offset handle and convex blade geometry.
For current pricing across the three lengths, visit Hasamiya 884 or see the Tokyo Riki brand page on ScissorPedia.
